I guess The Last Exorcism wasn't really The LAST Exorcism after all. A weak joke I know, but that's all I've got right now.
The Eli Roth-produced horror flick cost little and made a bundle. In Hollywood speak, that means you make a sequel. I dug The Last Exorcism until the final five minutes, which felt like a big fuck you. But still, most of the ride was alright.
Word comes via Collider that Ashley Bell will return for The Last Exorcism II: The Beginning of the End, and that the sequel will be hard R instead of PG-13. OK, I'm interested. Ed Gass-Donnelly directs and Roth returns as producer.
What's it about? Continuing where the first film left off, teenage Nell Sweetzer is found dirty and terrified in the woods having just escaped a demon ritual in which a cult helped her give birth to a demon baby. Confused and scared, Nell is examined by doctors but she doesn’t remember much about the previous few months except that as a result of everything, her family is now dead. She is moved into Davreaux – a girls’ halfway house in New Orleans, where she will try to put her life back together with the help of the therapist, Frank Merle. She even begins to date a boy named Chris and starts a job at a local hotel.
But something doesn’t feel right to Nell. She is being sought after by the demon who possessed her in the first LAST EXORCISM. It wants Nell, but in a different way than before…
As always, we'll keep you posted on the project as it develops.
